Founded in 1870 by Samuel T. Alexander and Henry P. Baldwin as a sugarcane plantation on Maui, Alexander & Baldwin (NYSE:ALEX), Inc. (NYSE: ALEX) today operates as a Hawai‘i-focused real estate investment trust headquartered in Honolulu. The company transitioned from its agricultural origins into a diversified real estate owner, operator and developer, completing its conversion to a REIT structure in late 2019 to align its corporate governance with its core property portfolio.

Alexander & Baldwin’s commercial real estate arm spans office, retail, industrial and hospitality properties across the four major Hawaiian Islands. Through its A&B Properties subsidiary, the firm engages in ground leasing, property management and development of mixed-use shopping centers, business parks and multifamily housing projects. The company also pursues strategic joint ventures to enhance asset performance and deliver amenities that reflect Hawaii’s cultural and environmental values.

Beyond its commercial holdings, A&B retains significant agricultural land assets, leveraging its century-old water-management expertise and long-term lease agreements with local growers. These lands support diversified crop production, ranching activities and conservation efforts that contribute to regional sustainability. Guided by a leadership team with deep experience in island economics and community development, Alexander & Baldwin continues to steward natural resources and generate value for shareholders throughout Hawai‘i’s unique real estate landscape.

Alexander & Baldwin Q3 2025 Earnings Call Transcript

Key Takeaways

• Positive Sentiment: Raised full-year FFO guidance: Company increased CRE & corporate FFO guidance to $1.13–$1.17 and total FFO to $1.36–$1.41 per share, marking the third consecutive quarter of upward guidance.
• Positive Sentiment: Internal development driving future NOI: Two Kumuana buildings (including a 91k sq ft warehouse pre-leased to Lowe’s) and Maui Business Park vertical construction are on track and are expected to add about $2.8M and $1.0M of annual NOI when stabilized.
• Positive Sentiment: Kaka‘ako tenant purchase will provide capital: Tenant exercised option to buy three floors, with the sale expected to close in Q1 2026 and generate $24.1M of proceeds planned for recycling into an acquisition via a 1031 exchange.
• Neutral Sentiment: CRE results showed modest same-store NOI growth (0.6% in Q3; portfolio NOI +1.2% YoY) and management reaffirmed full-year same-store NOI guidance of 3.4%–3.8%, while noting one-time items (bad debt, prior-year tax items and earlier move-outs) tempered quarterly growth.
• Negative Sentiment: Land operations remain a drag with no parcel sales in the quarter, an operating loss of $0.3M for Q3 and an annual carrying cost run rate of roughly $3.75M–$4.5M unless monetization occurs.

[Analyst at Alexander & Baldwin]

To close, Lance will return for final remarks and open it up for your questions. With that, let me turn the call over to Lance.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Thank you, Tram. That was a lot. Great job. Aloha and thanks to everyone joining us on the call today. Overall, our third quarter results exceeded expectations, and I am pleased by the progress we've made throughout the year. Our full-year outlook remains positive, and as a result, we are raising our FFO guidance. Turning to quarter highlights, our CRE portfolio performed in line with expectations and experienced same-store NOI growth of 0.6% for the quarter. Subsequent to quarter end, we executed a renewal with an anchor tenant in Kailua Town at an 11% lease spread, reflecting continued leasing strength. On the internal growth front, we continued to build momentum. At Komohana Industrial Park in West Oahu, we broke ground on two new buildings, a 91,000-square-foot warehouse pre-leased to Lowe’s and a 30,000-square-foot one on spec.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

We've already seen early interest in Building 2, underscoring demand for newly constructed industrial product in the market. We expect both buildings to be placed into service in the fourth quarter of 2026 and generate $2.8 million in annual NOI when they are stabilized in the first quarter of 2027. On Maui, vertical construction at our project at Maui Business Park remains on schedule, with completion anticipated in the first quarter of 2026. This project is expected to add approximately $1 million in annual NOI when it is complete. Earlier this year, we executed a strategic backfill at Kaka‘ako Commerce Center, successfully leasing two challenging vacant floors to a single tenant, bringing occupancy to 96.3%. During the third quarter, the company completed all required contingencies, and the tenant exercised their option to purchase three floors. This transaction provides an additional source of capital for future acquisition opportunities.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

On the external growth side, we're seeing increased momentum in the Hawaii investment market, including three large portfolios being marketed for sale, and we are actively pursuing acquisition opportunities aligned with our long-term growth strategy. Turning to our third quarter CRE highlights, we executed 49 leases in our improved property portfolio, representing approximately 164,000 square feet of GLA and $3.3 million of ABR. Our blended leasing spreads increased 4.4% on a comparable basis. Our lease occupancy was 95.6%, 160 basis points higher compared to the third quarter of last year and 20 basis points lower sequentially. Economic occupancy at quarter end was 94.3%, 130 basis points higher than the same period last year and 50 basis points lower than last quarter. SNO at quarter end was $6.4 million, including $3.1 million related to our two build-to-suit projects and $700,000 for our ground lease at Maui Business Park.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

We remain confident in our full-year outlook. Our CRE portfolio continues to perform well, and I'm encouraged by the progress across our internal and external growth initiatives. With that, I'll turn the call over to Clayton to discuss financial results and our full-year outlook. Clayton?

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Thanks, Lance. And aloha, everyone. Our portfolio generated $32.8 million of NOI in the third quarter, representing an increase of 1.2% over the same period last year. This growth was primarily driven by higher base rent year over year. Same-store NOI was $31.9 million for the quarter, a 60 basis point increase year over year. Consistent with our prior guidance, we experienced modest growth in the third quarter. This was due primarily to the impact of tenant move-outs that occurred earlier this year and have since been backfilled in one-time recoveries in Q3 of 2024. Additionally, higher bad debt expense related to a few isolated tenants further tempered growth in the quarter. Third quarter CRE and corporate-related FFO per share of $0.30 grew $0.02 or 7.1% from the same quarter last year. This improvement was attributed to lower G&A and higher portfolio NOI.

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Total company FFO for the quarter was $0.29 per share. In addition to the $0.30 from CRE and corporate previously mentioned, FFO for the third quarter included an operating loss of $298,000 from land operations as there were no land parcel sales in the quarter. Annual carrying costs in land operations continues to be in the range of $3.75 million-$4.5 million. G&A was $6.1 million for the quarter, approximately $1.4 million lower than the same period last year, primarily reflecting certain non-recurring and transaction-related items, as well as the timing of recurring expenses. In line with prior guidance, we expect full-year G&A to range from flat to a penny per share lower as compared to 2024. As Lance mentioned earlier, a tenant at Kaka‘ako Commerce Center has exercised its purchase option of three floors, two of which they currently lease.

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

The sale is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026 and will generate $24.1 million of proceeds that we expect to recycle into an acquisition property via a 1031 exchange. Turning to our balance sheet and liquidity. At quarter end, we had total liquidity of $284.3 million, and our net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio stood at 3.5 times. Approximately 89% of our debt was at fixed rates, and our weighted average interest rate was 4.7%. Consistent with historical practice, the company's Board of Directors plans to declare a fourth quarter 2025 dividend in December with payment in January. Given our year-to-date performance, we are pleased to update our 2025 guidance as follows. We are reaffirming our guidance of full-year same-store NOI growth of 3.4%-3.8%.

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Implied in this guidance is our estimate for the fourth quarter, where we expect a 4.4% same-store NOI growth at the midpoint. We are raising our guidance for CRE and corporate FFO and expect our full-year results to be within a range of $1.13-$1.17 per share, due primarily to the lower-than-expected interest expense in the third quarter. Total FFO is now expected to be $1.36-$1.41 per share, up a penny from our previous guidance. We feel confident about our portfolio, and we've positioned ourselves to close out the 2025 year strong. With that, I will turn the call over to Lance for his closing remarks.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Thank you, Clayton. To wrap up, I'm pleased with our overall performance. This is the third consecutive quarter we've raised guidance, reflecting our continued confidence in the full-year outlook. Our CRE FFO for the year has outperformed initial expectations, driven by strong portfolio performance, better-than-expected expense management, and steady progress across our growth initiatives. As we look ahead, we remain optimistic about how the year is shaping up and focused on executing our strategy to drive long-term value for shareholders. With that, I'd like to turn the call over to questions.

[Operator]

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the question-and-answer session. Should you have a question, please press the star key followed by the number one on your touch-tone phone. You will hear a prompt that your hand has been raised. Should you wish to decline from the polling process, please press the star key followed by the number two. If you are using a speakerphone, please lift the handset before pressing any keys. One moment, please, for your first question. Your first question comes from Rob Stevenson of Janney. Please go ahead.

[Robert Stevenson, Managing Director and Head of Real Estate Research at Janney]

Good afternoon, guys. Either Lance or Clayton, can you talk about when the $6.4 million of ABR from the SNO leases start to impact earnings or the bulk of that as we start thinking about 2026 in our model? Is that halfway through the year, or is that towards the end of the year? How should we be thinking about when that $6.4 million comes online?

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Hi, Rob. This is Clayton. I'll start off, and then either Lance or Kit can chime in and elaborate. With respect to the SNO, we typically anticipate normal SNO to become economic over 9 months-12 months. What's embedded in the SNO, importantly, is a couple of our development projects that are currently ongoing. One of those is a build-to-suit on Maui, and that's about $1 million, and that's expected to become economic in Q1 of next year. We also have a Komohana, which is a build-to-suit for Lowe’s, and that one's going to be really more in the fourth quarter or Q1 of 2027 timeframe. That one is about a couple million, so.

[Robert Stevenson, Managing Director and Head of Real Estate Research at Janney]

Okay. That's helpful. You said that the $24 million that you're getting on the purchase option that you're going to 1031 that. Has the asset that that's going to be rolled into been identified yet, or is that still to be determined?

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Hey, Rob, it's Lance. No, it has not yet been determined. I've spoken in the past just about the fact that our market is starting to open up from an investment standpoint, and there's a few active portfolios being marketed. Our investment team has been really busy in underwriting opportunities. We feel confident, particularly given the timing, that it won't close until Q1 of next year. We'll have sufficient time to identify and close on the upleg.

[Robert Stevenson, Managing Director and Head of Real Estate Research at Janney]

Okay. Clayton, you said that you're still expecting, despite the reduced G&A in the quarter, you're still expecting sort of flat to a penny a share lower versus 2024. If I look at 2024, you were just under $30 million. You're at, call it, $20 million year to date. You guys are going to be at somewhere between, call it, $9 million-$10 million of G&A in the fourth quarter. That sounds right?

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Yeah. We are expecting an uptick in G&A in the fourth quarter. I think if you do the math, it would be around $9 milloin-ish. What that's really reflecting is just we did have some timing differences that were part of our Q3 numbers, and so there's some element to that. In addition, we've been pretty open about the fact that we've been actively pursuing opportunities in the market. Our guidance does reflect that there would be some transaction-related costs associated with those pursuits. Now, having said that, we are taking steps to mitigate these items and control costs to the extent that we're able to, but that's really what our G&A guidance currently reflects.

[Robert Stevenson, Managing Director and Head of Real Estate Research at Janney]

Okay. Last one for me. Did you guys, did the entirety of the Sam's Club TI hit in the third quarter? If so, what was that?

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

It did. We paid that out, and it was about $19.6 million.

[Robert Stevenson, Managing Director and Head of Real Estate Research at Janney]

Okay, thanks, guys. Appreciate the time this evening.

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Thanks, Rob.

[Operator]

Your next question comes from Alexander Goldfarb of Piper Sandler. Please go ahead.

[Alexander Goldfarb, Managing Director at Piper Sandler]

Hey. I think it's still good morning out there, so good morning out there. Just a few questions. First, and forgive me, my Hawaiian is not good, so if I botch the name, Kaka‘ako, the two-floor sale in that asset. Is that something common that you have in other properties, and do you have it in the rest of this building? We normally don't see tenants sort of buying out their floors. We see that overseas in various foreign markets, but in the U.S., a little less common. Just curious if there are other buildings or other parts of this building that have that same structure and if that's something that we may see more of as a way for you guys to extract value.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Hey, Alex, it's Lance. I'm going to give you a solid C on the Hawaiian because you nailed the first half. The second half of the pronunciation was a little rough, but I appreciate the effort. Kaka‘ako Commerce Center, if you may recall, is a six-story industrial building that we own in urban Honolulu. We had one floor that was vacant in all of 2024. It was the sixth floor. It was pretty challenging. I just want to commend the team for coming up with a really creative solution that allowed us to backfill not just that floor, but a second floor to the same tenant. One of the ways that we attracted this tenant is we actually put a CPR or condo map on the building so that we could divide each of the six floors into individual units.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

We provided an option to that tenant to purchase, which they have now exercised. It is unique to the space. It's a unique building. We don't have anything else like it in the portfolio. It was a really creative solution, one, to take the overall leased occupancy in the space to over 96% and allow us to extract some capital and recycle it into other strategic investments.

[Alexander Goldfarb, Managing Director at Piper Sandler]

Okay. The next question is, I appreciate the commentary on the land overhead, the penny loss, just because there are no land sales. Is that something that we should think about for next year? As we're modeling 2026, just think about that there's a -$0.01 per quarter if there aren't any land sales.

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Alex, it's Clayton. With respect to next year, as you know, we haven't guided for 2026 at this point. What we have provided guidance on is the run rate for land operations. In that, we have indicated that there's $3.75 million-$4.5 million, which is the annualized run rate. We are very conscious and taking steps to manage those costs as best as possible. As we're able to further monetize and streamline, we're going to be bringing that cost down further. At this point, this is what we have for our run rate. We'll give you more information in the fourth quarter as we guide to 2026.

[Alexander Goldfarb, Managing Director at Piper Sandler]

Right. Basically, absent land sales, it's a penny a quarter is the drag.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

We do also have some offsetting revenue. We've got some land leases in some of the non-core assets that we still own in Land Operations. To Clayton's point, in the absence of any activity, which we have typically not guided to because we acknowledge it's episodic, you should or could expect a modest loss in the Land Operations division.

[Alexander Goldfarb, Managing Director at Piper Sandler]

Okay. Finally, on the rent spreads, first of all, great to see you guys raising guidance, so I don't want to take away from that. On the new rents, recently they've been slightly negative. The renewals have been positive, which is great. I'm just sort of curious, why would I usually see new rent spreads to be much higher than renewals, and here you guys seem to be trending the reverse. Is there something peculiar about the past number of quarters, the types of deals that have been rolling, or what else is sort of driving this dynamic?

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

I'll start first with just what happened in Q3, Alex. I think it's sort of a similar dynamic for prior quarters where, in some cases, and it certainly was this past quarter, we have one tenant that sort of disproportionately impacted our numbers.

[Alexander Goldfarb, Managing Director at Piper Sandler]

Yeah, you guys have talked about the Sam's.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Yeah. In this case, it was one tenant in Kailua, and we had basically moved the use from a residential brokerage operation to a Pilates studio. That deal was more about the fact that the prior tenant was above market than it was that the new tenant was below market. Just for context, we're talking about a 2,000 square foot space, and the absolute dollar impact was about $33,000 of ABR. At least from our perspective, it was more just a deal as opposed to anything that's reflective of the portfolio as a whole.

[Alexander Goldfarb, Managing Director at Piper Sandler]

Okay. Yeah. No, I mean, when you look at the volume, it's pretty clear the new deals are very, it's a very small sample set versus the renewals are more robust, which is why I asked if it was just the peculiarities of what it was. That's helpful. Anyway, listen, thank you.

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Okay, thanks, Alex.

[Operator]

Your next question is from Mitch Germain of Citizens Bank. Please go ahead.

[Mitch Germain, Managing Director of Real Estate Research at Citizens Bank]

Thank you. Do you guys have the same-store number if you remove that one-time item in the prior? I think you have one-time reimbursement. If you remove that, where would your same-store have been for the quarter?

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Hi, Mitch. Clayton. I'll take that one, and Kit can chime in to the extent it needs more elaboration. Our same-store NOI growth was impacted by a couple key factors, one of which was the one-time item related to bad debt. We also had a couple non-recurring items related to real property tax that really pertained to Q3 of last year. If you were to take those into account, as well as some move-outs, we actually quantified that to be about 370 basis points collectively. That would have got you more in line with what we were experiencing, same-store NOI growth for the first half of the year. Three main factors, just to recap: it's the bad debt, there were the real property tax one-time items that related to last year, and then we had known move-outs that happened.

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

That was economic in Q3 of last year, but not this year.

[Mitch Germain, Managing Director of Real Estate Research at Citizens Bank]

Right. I think that's perfect.

[Kit Millan, SVP of Asset Management at Alexander & Baldwin]

Thank you. I just wanted to add also, I think it's important to note that those known move-outs, all of them have been backfilled. They're not all economic yet, but they will all be economic in Q1. The final one is the Komohana ground lease that we are now converting to a new build and space lease property.

[Mitch Germain, Managing Director of Real Estate Research at Citizens Bank]

Perfect. Lance, you seem pretty bullish about acquisition prospects. It seems like that tone has continued. I'm curious about the competitive landscape. Are you seeing a lot of that private capital back now that the lending markets appear to be a little bit more efficient currently?

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

We've talked in the past, Mitch, just about the typical construct of the competitive market that we play in, where typically lower-priced assets from just a dollar standpoint, we're usually competing with local buyers, sometimes smaller family offices here. When we get into larger assets, typically $100 million+, you'll start to see mainland capital, whether it's on the private side. Rarely we'll see any public. We don't have too many REITs in our asset classes. That middle space is where we tend to see less competition from the extremes. Specifically to what we're seeing in the market, look, we're just really sort of seeing it open up. I referenced a few portfolios. There are two retail portfolios that are currently being marketed. There's an industrial portfolio that's currently being marketed. Portfolios in scale typically are larger and more expensive.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

We are seeing some mainland capital explore the marketplace, sort of typical in terms of the types of people that we compete with. Usually where we have the competitive edge against buyers like that is the fact that we're here, we're local, and we know the assets typically better than mainland buyers. We're optimistic that we'll be able to make some of these or other opportunities that we're looking at work. Obviously, at the end of the day, it's going to be subject to pricing. Hopefully, that gives you just some color in terms of what we're seeing in real time.

[Mitch Germain, Managing Director of Real Estate Research at Citizens Bank]

Perfect. Thank you, guys.

[Operator]

Your next question comes from Brendan McCarthy from Sidoti. Please go ahead.

[Brendan McCarthy, Equity Research Analyst at Sidoti]

Great. Hey, Lance. Hey, Clay. Appreciate you taking my questions here. Just wanted to start off looking at the ground lease portfolio, the 36-acre industrial space. I know that that was up for renewal, I think, this year. Just curious if you can provide color on how we can think about the renewal process there. I think I noticed in some marketing materials that you're considering developing that internally. I think it's the heartyard. Just curious as to how we can think about that asset.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Hey, Brendan. It's Lance. We've talked about the likelihood of that ground lease renewing. We still have that perspective. I think it's highly likely that we end up renewing the tenant there. We are in early discussions despite the fact that it does naturally expire at the end of this year. It's premature to provide any color in terms of where we think that ends up. Longer term, we have been articulating just the internal growth path that we have as a result of our land inventory. Some of it is currently ready to build in Maui Business Park. Others in Kapolei, like this 36 acres, is currently under covered ground leases. We're getting active income while we can plan. That's really more sort of longer-term value creation once we get through the renewal process. That probably takes us out a few more years before we go active on that.

[Brendan McCarthy, Equity Research Analyst at Sidoti]

That makes sense. Any detail on the potential ABR step-up opportunity there with the renewal?

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Just because this is sort of live, probably inappropriate and premature for us to discuss, but hopefully by our next call, we'll have more insight in how that kind of played out.

[Brendan McCarthy, Equity Research Analyst at Sidoti]

That makes sense. Understood. Looking at capital allocation, I know you discussed a favorable outlook, improving outlook on the deal market. You have these internal development opportunities. How can we kind of think about share buybacks? I know we discussed this on a previous call, but considering where their share prices are, are share buybacks something that you're increasingly looking into?

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

I'll take that. Hey, Brendan, Clayton. With respect to the share repurchases, we do have a program that is in effect and that is one of the tools that we have in our capital allocation toolkit. Obviously, as the stock price fluctuates, that does weigh into our consideration. At the end of the day, we kind of look at capital allocation just from a risk-adjusted return perspective. That would entail whether it's placing capital for acquisitions, for internal development opportunities, as well as share repurchases. We are considering that, and we'll make decisions according to the opportunities that are in front of us.

[Brendan McCarthy, Equity Research Analyst at Sidoti]

Got it. Thanks, Clayton. Thanks, Lance. That's all for me.

[Clayton Chun, CFO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Thanks, Brandon.

[Operator]

As a reminder, if you wish to ask a question, please press star one. Your next question comes from Gaurav Mehta of Alliance Global Partners. Please go ahead.

[Gaurav Mehta, Managing Director and Senior Equity Research Analyst at Alliance Global Partners]

Thank you. I wanted to ask you on the portfolios that you discussed. I think you said two retail and one industrial. Can you provide some color on what kind of pricing and cap rates you are seeing on those portfolios? Just to clarify, are those portfolios you are looking at for your own acquisition, or are they being marketed for sale in the transaction market?

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Hey, Gaurav. It's Lance. Just because these are live deals, I'm not sure it would be appropriate for me to talk about our perspective on cap rates. To the second part of your question, before I provide a little bit more detail, I would say, look, we look at every opportunity that comes into the market. We typically don't talk about deals that we're actively pursuing or actively considering until we get further along in the process, typically after we close. That all said, our perspective on the market in general is sort of holding from where we were last quarter. I would say expected pricing in the market, call it 5%-6% cap type deals in general. You may see flex on either side of that, depending on the type of asset we're looking at, depending on the quality of the property that it may be.

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Value-add type deals, for example, you would expect to see some expansion on that cap rate. Ground leases, you would expect to see some compression on those cap rates. In general, that's sort of our perspective of where the market is today.

[Gaurav Mehta, Managing Director and Senior Equity Research Analyst at Alliance Global Partners]

Okay. Second question I want to ask you on your office portfolio. The office property Lono Center, I noticed the occupancy on that property is 37%. I just want to get some color on that property. Generally, what you're thinking about your office portfolio, is that something you want to hold or is that something you want to recycle at some point?

[Lance Parker, CEO at Alexander & Baldwin]

Lono Center is actually one of two office buildings that sits on a 19-acre block that we own in Kahului on Maui. We purposefully were driving occupancy away from that building into our Kahului office building. The thinking was that could have been an individual disposition, maybe even an owner-user type sale. We do have that 19-acre block currently on the market. We have it listed for sale. We've been in discussions with a buyer. I think we may have disclosed that last quarter. We are actively looking to dispose of what we've talked about in the past, again, as non-strategic asset class for us, recycling that capital into more strategic investments. As we sort of head into the end of the year, we can probably provide a little bit more color in terms of where that process stands.

[Gaurav Mehta, Managing Director and Senior Equity Research Analyst at Alliance Global Partners]

Okay, thank you. That's all I had.

[Operator]

There are no further questions at this time. I will now turn the call over to Clayton Chun. Please continue.
